Warm Spell Forecast
By POP BOONE
F BROWNSVILLE, March 14.—It
was a dull day for the Cats Thurs-
. day. Two arrivals furnished the
only excitement—Firpo Marberry
and a nawsty, drippy norther
. dropped in almost together. As
it was the fourth day of prac-
‘ tice and the lads were far enough
along to maybe get some good out
of a layoff, no attempt was made
to work.
Absence of Joe Abreu, who was
supposed to be en route via auto,
- was explained by Business Mana-
ger Coombs. He understood Joe
was coming in and collect his
traveling expenses afterwards. So

TAMPA. Fla., March 14.—New

Bonham, winner of nine games
late last season, has been sent to
Johns Hopkins Hospital in Balti-

in his kidneys, it was announced
today. The Yanks clipped the
Louisville Colonels, 8-2, for the
second straight time yesterday.
Two Kansas City recruits—John-

pitched for the Yanks and allow-

for a single and a triple.

They could have worked out yes-
terday, as it wasn’t difficult to
keep warm as long as a guy mov-
ed.
Boy, I'd hate to see a frost
down here right now. That 81
temperature Wednesday brought
out the orange and grapefruit
blossoms, and the orchards look
like they’d been hit by a snow-
storm. And didjuh ever ride along
between a couple of citrus orch-
ards which were in full bloom?
Man, oh man! Such a perfum-
ery!
Nearly all the guys with ex-
tremely sore muscles and blis-
tered feet were glad of the layoff.
Skipper Linton gives the young
fellows hail-columbia happy day

Uncle Ed and George Milstead are

Chucks Philosophy
If all ball players took the care
of their jobs that Chuck Baron
does, they wouldn't have blister-
ed feet. Chuck broke in new
baseball shoes last fall while
working out on his game leg. He
also had his old shoes. So he
didn't have to wear any foot-
pinchers or do any breaking-in.
And I wish you could see Chuck’s
gloves.
"Well, a good machinist or a
good carpenter always has good
tools," insists the first baseman.
"Why shouldn’t a ball player have
good tools, too?”
Anyhow, there isn't a heck of
a lot of real news around a base-
ball camp in the deep tropics on
a cold, rainy day, is there?”

FLU AND WEATHER
HIT WHITE SOX HARD
in the first real intra-squad game
of the spring practice session.
Everything will count as Coach
Dutch Meyer turns loose his
“Whites," the regulars, against
the “Purple,” lads, who hope to
nudge the starters for their posi-
tions next fall.
Sorry, but Meyer announces
that this little party will be be-
hind closed gates. Frog fans will
have an opportunity to see the
footballers in action later in the
month.
The regulars will line up like
this:
Ends, Phil Roach and Ronnie
Brumbaugh; tackles. Woodrow
Adams and Derrill Palmer;
guards, Bill Crawford and Leon-
ard Pugh; center, Dave Wof-
ford; backs, Kyle Gillespie,
Frank Kring, Frank Medanich
and Nolan Sparks.
The opposition will be:
Ends, Bruce Alford and Jim
Pritchard; tackles, Jim Hamp-
ton and Clyde Flowers; guards.
Robert Moss and Allan Pike;
center, James Mecaskey; backs,
Beecher Montgomery, Van Hall,
Bill Ramsey and Fred Taylor.
The first string stacks up a
good deal stronger than the re-
serves but the latter are coming
along fast and should make the
going tough.
Meyer was smiling again yes-
terday as he sent his squad
through a pass scrimmage. The
first team, with Gillespie doing
the tossing, marched down the
field for three touchdowns using
nothing but passes. They would
pass four straight times and were
allowed to keep the ball if they
made 10 yards or more.
And on one occasion when Gil-
lespie could find no receivers, he
displayed a pair of flying heels
and fancy hips to step unmolested
through the entire opposition;
The statistics for the whole
“game” were 28 completions out
of 47 tosses.
Harmon Hightower and Beecher
Montgomery also pitched and ran
well. Wofford, Roach and Kring
also looked good in their depart-
ments.
Gus Bierman came down with
another of those well-known Frog
leg injuries and will be out of
action for a week or so. Drum-
mond Slover also was shaken up
